Blankets & wines Founder, Muthoni Drummer Queen took to Instagram to advise elated fans as they prepare for the long-awaited event.
The event made a major comeback this year, since the disruptions of COVID-19. Slotted for Wednesday, Dec 21, the Kenyan Summer II will feature an upgraded location, the only Home of Heroes (Laureate Garden in Moi International Sports Center) for nothing but a heroic experience. Taking the fans through a video tour of the grounds, she advises:
1. Wear comfortable shoes. Ladies, please do not wear high heels. The venue is huge and you will need to walk a lot from the parking lot to the grounds and also explore various activities prepared for you.
2. Do not drink and drive. We will be offering courtesy buses picking up and dropping off people to & fro the venue and the CBD. Use Cab services available such as Uber, Bolt, Little Cab & any other available. Safety is very important.
3. This is a warning to ill contenders, pickpockets and the likes. Secure is tight. The venue has its own police station with ties to multi agencies in government, proper lighting and a perimeter wall. Nowhere to run, once caught.
4. Wear or carry warm clothes e.g. Sweaters, jackets or blankets for the Sundowner concert going on till late.
